Difficulty of French visa:

A French visa must be interviewed by the French Language and Academic Assessment Center (CELA), which is the most critical step in the visa. The contents of the investigation include: study motivation, study plan, professional level, career plan and language level.

TEF test scores can't determine the success of visa application:

At present, the TEF test held in China only has a written test (now in the form of computer test), and the students' scores can't fully reflect their true level; The oral part is replaced by ELA (visa interview) of CELA (Language and Academic Assessment Center). Therefore, there is no visa policy that the TEF test scores determine whether students can get a visa, which is different from the policy of British and Australian embassies. Therefore, rumors like "you can get a sign if you score more than 15 points" are unfounded. Only by combining TEF scores with interview performance can we judge the possibility of winning the contract.

Necessary preparations for visa interview:

1) Master all the contents in your resume and motivation letter for studying abroad, and blurt it out without giving people a feeling of reciting. This requires students to be realistic and logical when writing resumes and motivation letters for studying abroad; Clearly and concisely express your reasons for studying abroad, purpose of studying and future career plans.

2) Mastering the courses learned in China and those learned in France. Students can remember some of the main courses according to the official documents of domestic university scores and the contents of the courses offered by the French universities they apply for, and they should be able to express the course names and basic contents in French/English.

3) For some unconventional questions, students should not worry and be nervous, because those questions are not the main content of investigation; Don't make things up when you don't understand them. Answering irrelevant questions is what the interviewer hates most.

This is a successful case of applying for a visa to France. I hope it will help you and reduce your mental stress and psychological burden:

Hello, teacher, I am a student who just interviewed and wants to study in France. The day before yesterday, I received a letter

caring your visa application, we inform you that a decision has beentaken.so, we please you to come to the visa section of the French Embassy in Beijing, in the afternoon, after 14h, from Monday to Friday, With your receipt and this e-mail.

Teacher, I was the person who sent you that English letter last time. My visa came down, and I got more than 8 points in TEF. I did it myself and passed. The boy in front of me got more than 1 points in TEF, but he was rejected. I was also nervous when I signed the face-to-face, and I also spoke a lot of Chinese. I thought I would be rejected, or maybe my job was dominant. Anyway, I finally passed. I'm here to advise you not to be nervous. Most foreigners still value your purpose and motivation to go abroad and whether it is beneficial to the future development of China and France, so it's no problem to do it yourself. One more thing, they really like beautiful women! Hehe ~ ~ ~ ~
